The Scout Promise:

The Scout Promise is a simple way to help young people and adults keep the Fundamentals of Scouting in mind. The Promise is the oath taken by all Members as they commit to sharing the values of Scouting. It is therefore vital that every Members considers the Promise and discusses its meaning before making the Promise and being invested into Scouting.
